[Comprehensive British and American] Daniel Phillips

Chap.19 Trip to Washington

If New York City is a city full of business opportunities, then Washington DC is the political center of the United States, where every inch of land is expensive, and it is not easy to find a safe place to live.Daniel jumped out of the van, looked at the old house in front of him, and nodded with satisfaction.In fact, their coming to Washington this time was also a temporary idea, but thanks to the rapid development of the online rental system, he still found a suitable place to live. Now he misses the soft bed very much. You know, sleeping in a truck is not a good idea. A good thing.

"There is a basement here." Bucky met Daniel at the door after inspecting the periphery, "We can lock those people inside."

"Of course, I won't let them enter my house." Daniel snapped his fingers, and the container warehouses opened automatically. William Stryker, who was tied up with iron chains and blindfolded, and several others The guards obediently walked down as if being dragged by something, and consciously walked towards the entrance of the basement.Bucky glanced at Daniel, walked around to the back of the house and opened the entrance door, and the controlled William Stryker and others walked in automatically and consciously.

"You shouldn't use your abilities on such trivial matters." Bucky just closed the door to the basement, the surrounding metal had already moved over to reinforce the wooden door, and the thin chains formed a new lock.Bucky said disapprovingly, "I think you need to take a good rest, since you have to rest for a long time after every battle."

"That was just before." Daniel refined the dagger that Bucky gave him as a defense into metal needles again, and let them spin around themselves in the air, "I have read his research from William Stryker's mind The location of the research institute is a very smart choice, his research data exists in the Pentagon, but the test base is next to the Alkali Lake Dam in British Columbia, Canada."

"The Pentagon," Bucky raised his eyebrows, "he really knows how to hide things."

"As the deputy secretary of the Ministry of Defense, he has the right to freely enter and exit the Pentagon. Is there any place safer than the Pentagon?" Daniel opened the door, and he was not surprised to see the living room that was almost emptied. He pouted, " I think we need to tidy up the place before we get the data from William Stryker's experiments."

"Water and electricity are available, we just need to add some furniture." Bucky checked the main gate in the house, "How long are you going to stay here?"

"About half a year, or a year." Daniel said, "The Pentagon is not so easy to break through, especially when Magneto's escape made the building's security measures more than ten times higher. I think even if we pretend to be tourists, we can Entering the hall smoothly, it may not be so easy to go to William Stryker's office." He glanced at Bucky's mechanical arm meaningfully, knowing that there are metal detectors at every entrance and exit of the Pentagon. Even if it is disguised, those machines can still detect it.

"I can provide support from the outside, or cover for you." Bucky moved his mechanical arm, "But we have to have a detailed plan."

"Of course," Daniel said with a smile, "but the top priority is to clean up this place first."

When he's not on missions, Steve Rogers prefers to live in Washington D.C. rather than New York, which is where he was born and raised, but there are times when he needs to be away from missions, S.H.I.E.L.D. Or unhappy memories.With the help of Natasha Romanoff, he rented a bachelor apartment in Washington, which was small in size but decorated a bit like his home in Brooklyn, which made him feel very comfortable.

Captain America, who has always been unable to keep up with the pace of life of modern people, still retains the habit of recording the things he needs to do on paper. He took the shopping list he made in the morning to the largest supermarket in the city center, preparing for the next day. It was a month's vacation to prepare daily necessities, and there, he saw Daniel.

The moment he meets Steve Rogers, Daniel is overjoyed to let Bucky stay home and assemble the furniture.He calmly put down the cheese in his hand, and greeted Captain America with a smile, as if he was not on the SHIELD wanted list: "Good morning, Cap."

"Good morning." It was customary for Steve Rogers to reply with the same greeting. After a long while, he suddenly stepped forward and grabbed Daniel to a remote corner, "Why are you here? Where's Bucky?"

With an exclamation, Daniel glanced at Steve Rogers' hand holding his arm, and said after the other party let go, "It seems that you know more than I thought."

"Tell me, where is he?" Steve Rogers made Daniel back away until his back touched the shelf.He didn't realize how ambiguous his current behavior looked to others, and asked eagerly, "I saw that you once fought side by side, and he was still with you, right?"

"Do you know that you have been under surveillance, Captain?" Daniel asked, avoiding the subject.

Steve Rogers paused, apparently not expecting Daniel to ask such a question.

"You are a good friend of Bucky, I know that." Daniel drew a circle in the air with his fingers, and the mental power released made others detour, "But there are too many uncertainties around you, I cannot tell you his location."

"I know." Of course Steve Rogers knew that S.H.I.E.L.D. had a lot of eyeliners around him, whether it was in New York or Washington.He's not really a blond and big breasted sweetheart, and the only reason he didn't reveal it was because it wasn't necessary, "So, he's safe, right?"

"Yes, Captain." Daniel nodded, "I think you would rather hear him tell you the details, so don't ask. We have our purpose in coming to Washington, and it has nothing to do with S.H.I.E.L.D. Ordinary citizens. Everything we do is for revenge and you can't stop us."

Steve Rogers would love to say he's in, but he can't, at least not yet.He took a deep breath and said, "I want your contact information."

Daniel just smiled, and suddenly reached out to touch Steve Rogers' forehead. Captain America, who had been injected with super serum, felt that someone had taken something out of his head. He shook his head and took a closer look, only to find that There is nothing unusual in front of me.

Why am I here?He patted his head and couldn't help but have some doubts.

"Why do we have takeaway tonight?" Bucky glanced at the pizza in front of him, a little dissatisfied.

"I met an unexpected person in the supermarket. I couldn't beat him, so I had to leave quietly and didn't buy anything." Daniel looked at Bucky with innocent eyes, and opened his mouth to take a bite of the hearty seafood. Pizza, "By the way, he is still your old acquaintance, Captain America."

"Steve?" Bucky's face loosened a little when he heard the name, but soon he straightened his face again, "He's in Washington, is he here to track us?"

"No, I guess it's just a simple vacation. Are you really not eating? I think this takeaway is pretty good." Daniel reached out to the French fries in front of Bucky, but Bucky blocked them back .

"This is mine." Bucky followed suit and sat on the ground, "He...I mean, did he mention me to you?"

"Of course, he wants to know where you are, but I didn't tell him." Daniel took a sip of ice coke, carefully observed Bucky's expression, and said, "Do you want me to tell him? Or would you like to meet him? Yes? I know his address in Washington."

After thinking about it for a while, Bucky shook his head: "I still don't want it." Their identities are very different now. Steve is Captain America, the embodiment of justice, and the pride of the people; and he, Bucky Key Barnes, but Hydra's modified weapon, has carried out countless assassination plans, and his hands are stained with the blood of innocent people.The world will not allow Captain America to have such a good friend.

"It's not your fault, Bucky." Daniel moved his buttocks and moved himself to Bucky's side, and said softly, "You don't need to blame yourself for this."

"I know it's Hydra's fault, but I can't forget." Bucky smiled, "I still remember their screams, their wailing. Those people begged me not to kill them, but I did it anyway gone."

"That's because you couldn't control yourself at that time. We all know how powerful Hydra's brainwashing is." Daniel put his hand on Bucky's shoulder, "Even a mutant with telepathic ability like me can You can't get rid of the influence of brainwashing immediately, let alone you, an ordinary person?"

He could never forget the dark memories he recalled after getting rid of Hydra's brainwashing, and he kept this secret in his heart all the time, and no one ever told it to him.He once helped Hydra control and capture mutants, watched them be dissected alive by those researchers, or used them as tools in his own training.Daniel glanced at his right hand, and when that ability was used, a red pattern would appear on the back of his hand, which was the symbol of bloody lily of the valley.

Daniel raised his hand to cover the back of his right hand. He still remembered how he trained to control this ability.He tortured the mutants who had been dying from the experiment, tried the most suitable mental power output and the most effective method of killing on them, and then killed them.

The author has something to say: I have something to do tomorrow, so I will suspend the update for a day.

I wish you all a happy New Year's Day and a happy new year~
